              <text>Medic’ Angola came into being in 1971 in Zurich as a 'working group for medical support for the Angolan People.' From 1976, the group called itself Kämpfendes Afrika after the journal of the same name that had been published by Medic' Angola since November 1971. Kämpfendes Afrika was a political solidarity organization that devoted itself to the support of African Liberation Organizations in Switzerland. To this end, it set about building a dense network of contacts with several national liberation movements, especially in southern Africa. It supported these materially and financially and conducted intense publicity activities. This inventory lists an extensive archival collection on the solidarity group, which disbanded in 1988.</text>
